If the straightness interferometer and reflector are manufactured
before 2002 they are a matched pair.
All straightness interferometers and reflectors manufactured after
2002 are not matched pairs as the manufacturing process was
improved.
Therefore, it is possible to interchange post 2002 elements with
other straightness kits manufactured after this date.

We no longer quote minimum PC requirements for our Laser
calibration products in help manuals.
For an up to date minimum PC specification please go to the XL-
80 Calibration software page on the website.

Additional clarification:
Renishaw recommends that XL-80 is recalibrated every three
years. This is defined as three years from sale rather than from
the calibration date on the certificate. This is because the units
are stored under controlled conditions by Renishaw prior to sale.

Additional statement added:
LaserXL analysis software was designed to meet ISO 230-2 1997. The
current standard (ISO 230-2 2006) altered the analysis of the data by
introducing the determination and reporting of a value for
measurement uncertainty, which is not reported in LaserXL analysis
software. There has been no change to the data capture process or to
the previous analysis calculations from ISO 230-2 1997.
It is up to the user to define and complete a range of tests for the
uncertainty parameters specified in ISO 230-2 2006. Once a total
measurement uncertainty value has been calculated, the new
Renishaw analysis software (XCal-View) provides the user the space to
manually enter it into reporting.
